There is now a story floating around that the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt has passed a law allowing husbands to have sex with their wives for up to six hours after their wife’s death. REALLY?????? I first heard about it from listening to good old reliable Rush Limbaugh. He prefaced it with saying that he [...]

While listening to a religious conservative talk show I heard a concern that I have often heard expressed before – that we are in danger of losing our rights and liberties; that our liberties are being eroded away. Every time I hear this I find myself asking – what rights are in danger? How [...]

Writing as someone who fully supported our initial invasion of Afghanistan (and who still does support it); I think it is time to get out. Now. Any good that comes from our staying is now going to be greatly outweighed by the harm we do – to the Afghan people, to our troops, to our [...]

I was reading the article in my paper about Moeed Abdul Salam, a North Texas man who went to Pakistan and became an al-Qaeda operative. He died on Nov 19, 2011 during a raid by the Pakistani military, either killed by the military or killing himself with a hand grenade, depending on whose story you [...]

I was listening to a talk show today. The host was going on about our 2nd amendment rights and about how ridiculous it was to regulate guns since it should be obvious even to morons that guns do not kill people, people do. This made me wonder – how many people who agree with this [...]

In my previous blog, Part 8: The Creation of Israel, I brought out the fact that its creation was a traumatic event and, when looked at as the culmination of over 60 years of history, more than capable of creating a climate ripe for the development of anti- Semitism. Another piece of evidence that this [...]

In my previous blog, Part 7 Israel, I started to discuss, in general, the problems inherent in creating a new nation without the consent of those already living there. In this blog I will be discussing the specifics of how this was accomplished. Let’s start by looking at some of the events leading up to [...]

Just as I was finishing my last two blogs (maybe three) about Islam up comes a news piece about how Lowe’s is pulling its ads from the TV show “American Muslim”. I have no idea on the quality of this show –whether it is good or bad. Given that it is a reality show I [...]

Before I go into the history of the creation of Israel and provide some information the FLAME ad conveniently leaves out let me state my opinions about Israel up front. First, I believe that Israel should never have been created in the manner it was. It was a huge mistake, mainly on the part of [...]

In Part 5, The Analogy I used a future United States as an analogy to better show the impact of colonialism. Here I will be going over the actual history of colonialism in the Middle East. The first bit to look at is how these Middle Eastern nations got into such financial problems. The short [...]
